If you’re looking for a way to send a message without calling, there are other options available.

Additionally, if you’re trying to reach a business customer service line, many companies offer online messaging services through their website or app that can be used instead of calling.

Yes, you typically have to press a button or series of buttons on your phone in order to leave a voicemail. The exact steps will vary depending on the type of phone you are using and the service provider. Generally, once you dial the intended recipient’s number, you should hear an automated voice instructing you how to leave a message. Depending on your provider, this may involve pressing 0 or * after hearing the instructions. If unsure of what to do, check with your service provider for more detailed instructions on how to leave a voicemail.
Can I leave someone a voicemail without calling them?

This should give you access to their voicemail system where you can record and send your message. If you are having trouble with this process, contact your phone service provider for additional assistance.
How do I go straight to voicemail instead of calling?
